Jim was fantastic! Very capable and competent. Corresponded over text, was available a few days after I contacted him, brought all supplies needed, worked efficiently and carefully. He installed the heavy mailbox post securely and drilled holes to secure the mailbox, even bringing an extra mailbox plate in case it was needed. Unfortunately the acrylic cracked a little in one place, when Jim was drilling the box top to the mailbox base, so he sealed it with clear sealant and added an extra washer. I asked him to cut the size of the screws showing on the base of the mailbox and he did so promptly and without complaint. Then I asked if he built fences, and he said he'd take a look. On the spot, he had a great idea for how to repair the fence section that had fallen down and a gate that had been hard to open due to wear. For a little extra money, he was happy to fix the fence section and the gate, as well as repair an electrical cord I had accidentally cut through months ago when trimming hedges. Jim is SUPER HANDY, responsive, and full of great ideas to fix items that need a little help rather than a major re-do. He's saved me a lot of time and headaches by having the skills to fix a lot of different home issues. I highly recommend him for his professionalism and broad capabilities. When I asked if he knew anyone he would trust with the landscaping work, he even kindly sent me a recommendation for a person that may be able to help with landscaping. Thanks Jim!
Description of Work: A recent storm knocked over our mailbox, so I needed a new one installed and secured. I had ordered a post from Amazon and an interesting modern box design from Etsy in acrylic & flexible plastic. And as it turns out, Jim also repaired a gate, a section of fence that had fallen, and repaired a cut electrical line that ran to our backyard lighting. Jim is great on LOTS of home repair work!

It went very well. I had gotten several bids, and Jim had the best price. He showed up on time (given my experience with contractors, just the fact that he showed up was a plus), worked all day, was polite and courteous throughout, and stayed until the job was finished. I was very pleased with his work. Everything looks very nice, and I will definitely use him again as needs come up with our house.
Description of Work: Jim made several sheet rock repairs in various rooms for us, including one that was very extensive and had rotted structural boards behind. Got got those studs repaired and also matched the existing texture everywhere. He also adjusted an exterior door that wasn't closing properly or latching/bolting.

I'm glad to have found Jim on angie's list. He was able to come out the same day I called to help replace a mailbox. He arrived on time and was very knowledgable and pleasant. He took time to explain other items that I thought might need to be fixed. Thank you very much Jim. I will certainly call on you again

The Hometown Handyman (Jim Batchler) arrived right on time and we're very pleased with the quality of the work performed. He is very friendly and was careful to see that furniture was moved a safe distance from the working area. Jim worked very efficiently and tidied up after each installation. We recommend the North Richland Hills (TX) Hometown Handyman to everyone. We found hime to be very knowledgable and a pleasure to work with.
